me, social media, guitar, etc

First of all, I have absolutely no idea if that’s how you spell it and I’m really tired so hope that’s right. Anyway, yesterday was quite an evening, as I got into the philharmonic for free (to start with). It has to be said that despite the fact that I play guitar for almost 2 years already and studied a bit of classical guitar, classical music is not really my thing. I can listen to it, it’s quite relaxing, but it’s just one of those things you do several times a year.

So I went there not actually knowing what it will be like, as I have to say this type of cultural activity is not something I do often, really. But I heard that Valentin Gheorghiu (who is just amazing at the piano, at over 80 years) was going to be there, so I checked it out. I was quite amazed to see that the philharmonic from an average city in Romania is this good, and they really were. The choir was also amazing.

The musicians were all very young for what you’d expect, but what amazed me was something else. Less than ten percent of the people from the audience were younger than 60-70 years old. What’s the future of the classical music 10 years from now ?? I have no idea. Just hope there is one.
